Pere Marquette River Area
The Eastern part of our county boasts small town friendliness, lush country scenery, the Manistee National Forest, and the Pere Marquette River. There’s so much to discover!
Scottville is the home of two “famous” attractions: the wild and zany Scottville Clown Band and the Old Engine Club. The Scottville Riverside Park, on the Pere Marquette River, has 52 full service sites--and a swimming pool--perfect for tent and trailer camping.
Walhalla, located on US-10, is the home of the Manistee National Forest on the banks of the Pere Marquette River. Canoeing and tubing on the Pere Marquette is hard to beat, and hiking through the forest is a delightful experience. The Manistee National Forest offers excellent year ‘round activities such as hiking, biking, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, bow hunting, and small game hunting.
